Class Lists and Contact Groups
Disable Spam Filtering
Contact groups for communicating with classes are simple to make and use in the Gmail web interface. First, in the web interface, switch from Mail to Contacts by clicking on the "Mail" drop down.
From here, click "New Group" and type in a name for the contact group. Once the group has been created, copy the contact list for the class. Select the contact group by clicking on it. Click on the button to add contacts to a group, and paste the addresses into the box.
To use this contact group, switch back to mail. When composing a message, begin typing the name of the contact group into the "To" or, almost certainly more appropriately, the "Bcc" box. The name of the contact group will automatically appear, and when it is selected the addresses from the contact group will automatically fill into the box. Note: This may not happen instantly. Newly created contact groups may not show up for several minutes.
